I found out I was pregnant for the first time in October 2012. My husband and I had been trying 8 months and it finally happened (the month I took mucinex, oddly enough)! I was so happy, you see I was 33 at the time and thought my clock was running out. I ended up losing the baby at 5 weeks on November 8th. I went to my doctor and she told me not to wait to try again, just to have one period. I figured she knew, so we tried again. February 1st, I began to have a period which lasted 6 days. Once the bleeding stopped (it had been black, sorry TMI), a day passed and I began bleeding bright pink/red blood. I felt dizzy and upset so I called my doctor. She advised me to take a pregnancy test. I went home and took a test, sure enough it was positive! I couldn't believe it, I was so happy but scared. I called her back and she advised I go to the ER asap. I ended up losing that baby as well. I have severe anxiety now and am unsure of how long to wait. :(
